CONCORD — State Fish and Game Department Turkey Biologist Ted Walski predicts another good harvest during the upcoming 2019 spring gobbler season. The spring turkey hunt runs throughout the month of May statewide.
New Hampshire’s 2019 youth turkey hunt will take place Saturday and Sunday, April 27 and April 28, the weekend before spring gobbler season opens. During the 2018 youth weekend, young hunters took 339 turkeys or 8.1 percent of the total spring season’s harvest. To participate in the youth weekend, hunters must be age 15 or younger and must be accompanied by a properly licensed adult age 18 or older. The mentoring adult may not carry a firearm or bow. Youth hunters do not need a hunting license, but they must have a valid turkey permit which is $16 for residents and $31 for nonresidents. Accompanying adults must hold either a current New Hampshire hunting or archery license and a turkey permit.
